White and Yellow Gold Diamond Sunburst Earrings
$7,500
The festive verve of these Retro sunburst mixed metal earrings adorn the ear in dynamism. Exploding forth from a round-cut central diamond, each of its nine geometric arms of white gold appears as a ray of light, terminating with a single diamond, emphasizing the center stone's ecstatic size and quality. Backed by a scrolling ribbon of yellow gold, pavé-set with diamonds, the earrings balance the face with airy romanticism.
